Would have shot CEC Gyanesh Kumar if: VIP chief Mukesh Sahani on ECI dissent row
Digital Desk | Patna, Sep 24 (IANS) Amid the ongoing controversy over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, Vikassheel Insaan Party chief Mukesh Sahani on Thursday made a controversial remark against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, saying he would have shot him if he were permitted to get away with one murder. Sahani was speaking about his allegations against the Election Commission and its handling of the electoral roll revision exercise. What can I do? They are destroying democracy. They are destroying the democracy envisioned by BR Ambedkar. These elections are not for any leader; that is their misunderstanding. Elections are for the citizens, Sahani said. The citizens have the power to remove people if they are not working. When the time comes for the change, they compromise the ECI and do things in their favour. You have seen in Bengal, with the help of police personnel, 27 lakh voters were removed. They formed the government. You have seen in Bihar that, in the middle of the election, the Model Code of Conduct was imposed and Rs 10,000 was sent to peoples accounts, he alleged. Sahani further alleged that the Election Commission had become an extension of the BJP. So, this ECI has become the Election Commission of the BJP. I want to tell Gyanesh Kumar that not every day is the same. You should have some shame... you are playing with the Constitution of India. If I were forgiven for one murder, I would have shot Gyanesh Kumar first, he said. However, Sahani said he would abide by the Constitution and claimed that action would be taken against Kumar in the future. But what can I do? I obey the Constitution. But he will not be spared in the coming times. In 2029, under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi, the government will be formed, and he will be among the first to go to jail, along with those who have committed such acts. It would be another matter if they do so before that, he said. Sahani also questioned the need for elections if, according to him, the electoral process was being manipulated. They are playing with the future. If you have to do all these things, then why are you holding elections? Stop holding elections because you are spending too much. If you are taking the mandate in your favour, then why are you conducting elections? he said. His remarks came amid reports that Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi had raised objections on at least 14 occasions over a 10-month period concerning decisions and processes related to electoral rolls and the SIR exercise. The reported objections included issues concerning the addition, deletion and restoration of voters names, changes to Form 6 and the handling and management of electoral roll data. The Election Commission, however, has maintained that all decisions, including those related to the SIR, were taken unanimously with the approval of all three Election Commissioners. It also said that individual views or observations during deliberations do not constitute separate decisions of the Commission.
CEC should resign; scrap SIR process, conduct fresh electoral roll revision: Karnataka CM Shivakumar
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Sep 24 (IANS) Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar on Thursday demanded the immediate resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and called for the scrapping of the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process and a fresh revision of electoral data to protect democracy and every citizens right to vote. Speaking to media in Bengaluru, CM Shivakumar said, The right to vote is the right to live. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi have raised their voices in defence of the voting rights of the people of the country. He alleged that attempts were being made to misuse the voting rights of ordinary citizens for political purposes. Similar attempts have been made in West Bengal, Bihar and several other states. Now they are trying to do the same everywhere, including Karnataka. I had also requested the Election Commission yesterday to give more time, he said. Referring to differences among members of the Election Commission, CM Shivakumar claimed that the autonomy given to the poll panel was being misused. When a majority of the members do not agree with an opinion, a decision cannot be imposed unilaterally. It would be better if the Chief Election Commissioner voluntarily resigns on moral grounds, he said. The Chief Minister demanded that the ongoing SIR process be scrapped and a fresh exercise be undertaken. We are not talking about Congress votes or BJP votes. Every citizen has the right to vote, and that is the right to live. Nobody can suppress that right, he said. Referring to Forms 6, 7 and 8 used in the electoral roll revision process, CM Shivakumar questioned the manner in which the current exercise was being conducted and alleged that it could particularly affect illiterate and disadvantaged sections of society. This is not merely a matter of opinion. It is a fundamental right. This is the voice of the common man, he said. He also said that the issue should be debated on a larger platform, including in Parliament, and opposed any alleged pressure or intimidation of officials in different states in the name of the Election Commission. We want a fresh SIR to be conducted. Everyone should be given their rights. The situation must be reviewed comprehensively to ensure the right to every vote, and the electoral data must be re-examined, CM Shivakumar said.
After Jamui, another girl harassed in Bihar; five detained in Samastipur after video goes viral
Digital Desk | Patna, Sep 24 (IANS) Days after a Class 10 girl was harassed in Bihar's Jamui, a similar case has emerged this time in Samastipur. A video showing the public harassment of a young girl has surfaced on social media, prompting police action and the detention of five suspects. The alleged incident took place on the Bandh Bypass Road in Jagatsinghpur village, under the jurisdiction of Karpurigram police station, and a few km from the Samastipur district headquarters. According to the preliminary information available to police, the girl had stopped along the roadside with a male companion to take photographs when a group of youths surrounded her and misbehaved with her. The viral video, which began circulating widely on social media late on Wednesday, allegedly shows some youths questioning the girl about her identity, verbally abusing her and engaging in inappropriate behaviour. The footage also appears to show an attempt to pull her along the road. Police said an onlooker is believed to have recorded the incident on a mobile phone before the clip was widely shared across social media platforms. After the video came to their notice, Samastipur Police initiated an investigation and began identifying those seen in the footage. So far, police have identified two suspects as Vikas Sharma and Rahul Kumar, both residents of Jagatsinghpur village. Police have detained five individuals from the village and are questioning them in connection with the case. Police said multiple liquor-related cases are already registered against Vikas Sharma. Samastipur Superintendent of Police Arvind Pratap Singh said officials were examining the roles of all individuals seen in the video and were directed to expedite the investigation and take appropriate legal action against those found involved. Investigators are also verifying the authenticity of the video, establishing when and where the incident took place, and identifying the person who recorded the footage. Police are examining whether the viral clip reflects the complete sequence of events or has been circulated in an edited form. Officials said the identities of everyone appearing in the video, the exact circumstances of the alleged incident and the number of people involved would become clear only after the investigation is completed. Police continue to question the detained suspects and gather information from local residents as the probe progresses.

Jammu Police arrest fugitive after seven-month manhunt
Jammu, Sep 23: Jammu Police have arrested Karanjeet alias Gugga, a wanted criminal who had escaped from the Juvenile Home at R.S. Pura in February this year, after a nearly seven-month-long manhunt, SSP Jammu said on Wednesday. Addressing a press conference, the SSP said Karanjeet was among three inmates who escaped from the juvenile home following an incident in February. The other two, both Pakistani nationals, were later arrested in Ambala with the assistance of Punjab and Haryana Police. Following the escape, the investigation was handed over to the DSP SOG and a Special Investigation Team headed by the SP Operations was constituted to trace those involved. Eight people were arrested in that case. The investigation continued and at the same time we were trying to arrest Karanjeet alias Gugga, the SSP said. He said Karanjeet was involved in around 12 to 13 FIRs and police tracked his movements by developing information about his associates and gang links. Police teams followed leads in several locations, including Gorakhpur, Kolkata, Delhi and Maharashtra, but he managed to evade arrest. The SSP said police recently received information that Karanjeet was staying with some associates in Chandigarh. A team raided the suspected location but did not find him there. During the follow-up investigation, police learnt that he was staying at a hotel in Delhi. An SOG team subsequently travelled to Delhi and arrested him, the SSP said. He said the arrest was significant for the ongoing investigation into the juvenile home incident, as police had identified additional persons linked to the case. The SSP said Karanjeets interrogation would help establish missing links in the investigation, including how weapons and mobile phones reached the juvenile home. Police had earlier arrested the person who allegedly supplied the weapons, while further investigation is underway to establish the complete chain, he said. The SSP said Karanjeet had been moving between different locations to evade arrest, with police following leads across Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal, Maharashtra and Delhi. On security arrangements at the juvenile home, the SSP said the police had taken up the matter with the concerned department and another location had also been identified for housing inmates. He said further details would emerge as the interrogation of Karanjeet progresses.
